PS4 Pro: SC and Hyperspace missing graphical effects

Greetings Commanders!

I was testing the new patch for a couple of hours last night. While doing so I got a message from a user on Discord, talking about some missing graphical effects on PS4 Pro.

The Commander had noticed the heat ‘wavy’ post processing effect was now totally missing when going into or leaving supercruise and when going into a jump to another system.

It’s most obvious when arriving at a star. as the lighter star colour gives a good background to see the effect on.

I have yet to test an Interdiction, as the interdiction tunnel used to feature the same special effect.

Unfortunately I have no videos of the effect in action. I may have some screenshots I can check this evening.

If we can gather enough evidence I think this would be worth issue tracking?

Hi @Bruce Garrido I understand you must be very busy with the FC & Fleet Carrier issues, but was wondering if it is at all possible to check on the progress of rectifying this issue at all?

It is still broken, I upgraded to a PS4 Pro specifically for this option.

I know, I know, get a decent PC they say, but that’s not possible right now. So I’m stuck with ELITE running in downgraded mode.

Thanks for your time.

Oh and having had 1 and a half months to test this, there’s a lot of finer details now missing.

LOD’s are down significantly.

The ‘Wavy heat haze’ tunnel effect on Super Cruise/Interdictions and upon entering a system, have had the post processing filter removed.

Strangely, shadows seem to be running how they were in ‘Quality’ mode.

I haven’t noticed a huge difference in rings when mining. Other than the horrendous LOD when above the ring/disc but out of SC. This seems to have gotten worse since the June FC patch.
